Empress Dowager Guide

Chapter 61 Sincerity Is a Nirvana
Why did Sheng Shaoqing feel that the meaning revealed between the lines of Chang Dajian was pushing the pot?

"What's so hard to choose?"

Chang Dajian's forehead was dripping with cold sweat, "This, this..."

He has worked conscientiously in the palace all his life, and he is always willing to do good deeds and be kind to others. It is hard for him to get to the position of Chang Qiuqing with his current qualifications. But it is too difficult for him to be so difficult for his first job. him.

"The humble minister is really, this is really a crime."

Sheng Shaoqing looked at Supervisor Chang, and when he met her inquiring gaze, his body shivered. It seemed that this task was really difficult.

There are too many monks and too few porridge. Every family wants to send their children into the palace, but there are only five pits in total. Chang Dajian wants to be a good man. .

"Aijia wants to ask you, if Aijia doesn't ask, how long do you plan to delay?"

Chang Dajian shuddered again when he heard the words, what was supposed to happen had finally come.

He glanced at Cui Yun quietly, and the latter bowed his head and raised his eyebrows beside the Queen Mother, without saying a word.

Thinking of her previous point, there is only one thing, to tell the truth.

Chang Dajian gritted his teeth and said, "I think His Majesty is talented and diligent in reading, so I go straight to the study every day after court, maybe... maybe I don't need to accompany you to read..."

Sheng Shaoqing: …………

Could it be that sincerity is the nirvana?

Cui Yun was also taken aback after hearing this, and told him to tell the truth, he really said it so truthfully, and charged himself with the crime.

Back then, she was familiar with him because he was honest and not as treacherous as others. It's just that after so many years, there are not many other advantages, but this honesty has never changed.

Among the people present, only Yuan Che was overjoyed when he heard this, hahaha, the empress finally knew that he had worked so hard!
"Director Chang, you still have a good plan."

After Chang Dajian finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief, uttering the truth and being light-hearted. These days, under the pressure of various gods, he has not breathed so freely for a long time.

"Haven't you thought of a way?"

Chang Dajian shook his head silently. He knew he was stupid. He had done good deeds for many years before everyone would say hello to him. So after Huang Dajian was convicted, he was elected as the new Chang Qiuqing. But when he encountered such a difficult job, he thought So, if you can procrastinate, you can procrastinate, and if you can't, let the Queen Mother worry about it. If he messes up and makes a mistake, it's better not to do it.

"Look at the system, there are people who are more lazy than me."

system:…………

【Can't you follow a good role model? 】

Sheng Shaoqing sighed, he had been thinking too much recently, and felt that his brain had become brighter.

"Accompanied by the emperor, in addition to birth, you also need to test your character, talent, etc. Among the dozens of children you mentioned, there are always good and bad."

Supervisor Chang nodded, "Yes, there are."

"For the sake of fairness, let these children take the school exam together, and the final ranking will be the best, wouldn't it be fine?"

Natural selection, survival of the fittest, this truth is never out of date.

Chang Dajian's eyes lit up, he nodded and said, "Yes, the empress dowager is wise!"

Sheng Shaoqing: ……………

Besides nodding, what else would Supervisor Chang do?
Oh, and he will ask back:
"Then Empress Dowager, what are the exams for this school? Please tell the Empress Dowager clearly."

"By the way, how should we choose the best? Please let the queen mother express it together, and I will do it now."

"However, these aristocratic families are all precious, so where should we set the test?"

Sheng Shaoqing was silent for a long time, "Chang Dajian, do you want Aijia to feed food into your mouth?"

Chang Dajian repeatedly said, "I don't dare, I don't dare."

"It's just, why did the empress dowager reward the humble minister with meals?"

Sheng Shaoqing: ……………

Seeing this, Cui Yun quickly winked at him. Chang Dajian received the signal, thinking that the Queen Mother really wanted a reward, so he quickly bowed down, "Thank you Queen Mother for the reward!"

Yuan Che couldn't stand watching from the sidelines, and then said, "Chang Dajian, the queen mother didn't want to reward you with food, but the queen mother meant, why do you need the queen mother to arrange everything for you? Could it be that you don't care about the affairs of Changqiu Temple in the future?" Do you want your mother to take care of everything personally?"

When Chang Dajian saw the emperor's words, he also reacted, and immediately knelt down and trembling to plead guilty.

Cui Yun was also speechless at the moment, just as she was about to speak out, Sheng Shaoqing waved her hand, "Ah Yun, you should discuss this matter with Chief Supervisor Chang, Ai's family is tired, and Ai's family is going to sleep."

However, at this time, Chang Dajian was quite winking, seeing that the Queen Mother was about to go to bed, he hurriedly got up and left.

Yuan Che also resigned at the right time, and Cui Yun and Sheng Shaoqing were left in the hall for a while, "Ajun, you say him, he, he, this person, does this person not understand Ai's words?"

Cui Yun was also helpless, "Chang Dajian was originally not good enough for this position. I didn't expect that once Huang Dajian was convicted, Chang Dajian has a lot of experience in Changqiu Temple, so it will be his turn."

After a while, Cui Yun added, "He is an honest man with absolutely no evil intentions, but... a bit dull."

"Then you should worry more about this matter. After all, you should be more cautious in choosing a companion for Che'er."

"Well, to ensure fairness, Aijia will come up with the questions himself, and you can discuss the rest with Supervisor Chang."

Cui Yun nodded and said yes, and after serving Sheng Shaoqing to sleep, Cui Yun went outside the hall to find Aning and Lianqiao to arrange the matter of praying for the Sunrise Palace.

[Host, for the sake of your diligence, I will add five points to your diligence. 】

"Tch, I'm not here to add points."

[Then I take it back? 】

"Well, I admit, there is also this part of the reason."

"Mainly, I want to spread the pain of exam-oriented education to every child in this land."

system:……………

Afterwards, Sheng Shaoqing's devilish laughter swept the entire hall, and Cui Yun, who had just left for a short time, rushed back again, "Queen Mother, what happened?"

Sheng Shaoqing replied loudly, "It's okay, it's okay, Aijia is thinking about what questions to ask."

【Host, this dream of yours is a bit grand. 】

Sheng Shaoqing asked strangely, "Why?"

[Because in this era, there is no imperial examination.The selection of officials in Beiliang is based on Zhongzheng's records as a reference, and based on family background and career status.Over the years, the right to speak has gradually been in the hands of the aristocratic family, resulting in the current situation that there are no poor families in the upper class, and no noble families in the lower class. 】

"So, that's why those aristocratic families dared to confront the imperial court?"

All the important officials in the court are from big families, even the despised Hanchens, the families behind them are all big surnames.

[Also, even if you open the imperial examination, there will be no change in a short time.So, my advice to you is, it's best not to add extra details. 】
